Images of life at airport that provides one of few opportunities for shelter in destroyed city
Survivors of Typhoon Haiyanin Tacloban who have been left with little possibility of shelter in thePhilippine city almost destroyed by the storm have beensharing space with aid workers and members of the media at the local airport, which is serving as the staging ground for aid deliveries and transports of people fleeing the region.
CBC's Andrew Lee is one of several journalists who have been staying at the airport and captured images of what life is like for those holed up in the impromptu shelter.
Taclobanwas one of the cities hit hardest by the typhoon, which killed at least 3,900 people and displaced several million. No building in the city has been left untouched, and piles of debris anddowned trees lie everywhere, including in and around the airport, which is itself damaged.
Residents of the city of about 200,000 people who have not managed to leave have had to seek shelter either at the airport or in tents and shelters set up by relief organizations.
